Закон Украины "О хозяйственных обществах"

English translation: Business Administration Act of Ukraine

07:48 Aug 20, 2011
Russian to English translations [PRO]
Law (general) / Ukrainian law
Russian term or phrase: Закон Украины "О хозяйственных обществах"
The difficulty here is that this is a Russian translation of the title of a Ukrainian law. There is a Ukrainian law "On Economic Associations". Is "associations" a fair enough translation of "oбщества"?

Are there any Ukrainian speakers out there with knowledge of this law?

Thank you!

Такой вариант больше подходит, если ваша аудитория: англичане или американцы. Для европейцев (французов, немцев и тд.) больше подходит вариант Андрея.

neutral  Alex Marshall: Again, I wish there were a fourth option here. Your reference to the official website raises no argument. However, that translation should be really taken down. It is fraught with errors and the translator has but a vague idea of the basic concepts

Law of Ukraine on Commercial Companies


Explanation:
This version is routinely used by most law firms. They sometimes translate "общества" as "societies", but "companies" fits the bill most of the time. "Societies" is also used in the Russian Civil Code for "общества" as opposed to "комании".
